Welcome to the Wiki.

New design considerations

Consider backing up a full namespace.

Backup not only the data stored on disk but also all the resources in the namespace

What has to be done

  1. The BackupConfiguration has the name of the namespace as a parameter.
  2. Get the list of all the resources (including the Custom Resource Definition) in the namespace
    1. Not the PVC resource definitions since the underlying PV will change when the backup is restored
  3. Save all the resources into one single YAML file and back it up with restic.
    1. Create a S3 bucket per namespace
    2. Consider NFS mounts as backup media
  4. Save the restic id of the backup into the BackupSession status.
